Since the management of hemorrhagic stroke differs from that of ischemic stroke, prompt, accurate, and early diagnosis is vital in the management of patients who present with acute onset of focal neurologic symptoms and/or with altered mental status. Diagnostic imaging in the form of computed tomography scan or magnetic resonance imaging and a vessel study is required to ascertain the bleeding characteristic, location, and etiology. A multidisciplinary approach is required in the management of hemorrhagic stroke. Early diagnosis and treatment of the hemorrhagic stroke impacts the long-term outcome of such patients. This chapter reviews the common clinical presentations, diagnostic imaging modalities and prehospital and emergency department medical management of the most common types of hemorrhagic stroke.

Underlying Disease Process

The purpose of this article is to present a general overview of the features of drug-induced movement disorders (DIMDs) comprised by Parkinsonism and extrapyramidal symptoms. Speech-language pathologists (SLPs) who work with patients presenting with these issues must have a broad understanding of the underlying disease process. This article will provide a brief introduction to the neuropathophysiology of DIMDs, a discussion of the associated symptomatology, the pharmacology implicated in causing DIMDs, and the medical management approaches currently in use.
